Customer Service Excellence

Meeting up with Mark Nicolls at a remote Speyside bond to view our casks was a very confirming experience. Great follow up call the next day, giving us fresh assurance of the potential of our investment.

A great return on my initial investment

I decided to invest in whisky five years ago after I inherited some money and was looking for a better return than just putting it into premium bonds. Five years on, I have just sold my two casks (now both 11 years old) back to Vintage Acquisitions and was delighted to learn from Sam Brooks that one of them had doubled in value, while the other had increased in value by 50%. The sale was agreed this morning and the money was in my bank account by mid-afternoon. I would highly recommend Vintage Acquisitions to anyone looking to invest in quality whisky.

Great customer focus at VA

Been thinking about investing in whisky for a while. My contact as VA was really helpful. I was made to feel really comfortable and was so relaxed before I started to build my portfolio. This is going to be a long term investment so you need to be with the right people. I think I have that.

Excellent Service and Guidance

I recently purchased my first whisky cask through Vintage Acquisitions and couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. I spoke with Alex, who was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and clear in answering all my questions. As someone completely new to whisky investment, I really appreciated how he took the time to explain the process step-by-step, without any pressure or sales pushiness.

Alex made everything feel straightforward and transparent, which gave me a lot of confidence in my decision. The service from start to finish has been professional, friendly, and genuinely supportive. I’m excited to be starting this journey and glad I chose Vintage Acquisitions to guide me.

Highly recommend to anyone considering whisky investment – especially if you’re starting out. Thanks again, Alex!

Re ignited whisky Investment!

I had been contemplating making the move to whisky investment for almost two years. It was in the back of my mind to follow through with this, but never had a spare minute to make that call.

I was reproached by Alex at Vintage Acquisition, and he re ignighted my appetite for whisky investment, with his reassurance that the cask he had on offer for my price range would be a suitable investment with good returns. He is knowledgeable in his field, and talks to you on your level, which makes you feel comfortable handing over a large sum of money. I highly recommend dealing with him and Vintage Acquisitions.
